Are you indeed falling down?  Or do you just want the wrong kind of food at the wrong time?

I guess the question remains: is it better to be a slut or a whore?

There.  Now be good or I'll banish you to the land of wind and ghosts.

Aww, you are becoming one of us. I think this is one of the internet's greatest success stories.

It's a ruse, a plot, a conspiracy.

Or else...he was one of us all along.

I subscribed to the ACLU.  something like $35 a year or something.  Then when it came time to re-up, I can't remember exactly what happened, but their customer service pissed me off, and I think I tried to complain about whatever was pissing me off, and got even more pissed off by their response or the inability to get in touch with anyone in their customer service.  So I no longer subscribe to the ACLU.  But I have this bumper sticker they sent me.  it says 'I'm a constitution voter.'

I dunno.  I'm not happy with it.  I want something stronger.  Something like "Jesus hates Republicans"

I'm just wondering why you would ever need to get in contact with the ACLU's customer service. That's where the real story is.

Post by: Thomas Pain on January 06, 2010, 04:33:54 am

I don't know maybe they was sending my subscription to the wrong address or they kept sending me renewal notices after I had already renewed or something.

anywya, no one discussed the topic of this which was does someone's avatar influence what you think aobut that person?

Post by: miles on January 06, 2010, 04:45:42 am

Ah, OK. That makes sense. I just read it as you gave $35 to the ACLU and got one of those cards to put in your wallet and a bumper sticker.

Umm, avatars. Yeah, it probably does. Unless you're Asherdan.

Asherdan's avatar looks like an evil scientist, and I like it.

I heard there was a study done that showed that people of similar body weight tended to hang out with each other more than with people of dissimilar body weight.

That was in real life but I wonder if that's true also for internet message boards.

PS why did jay ell change to not having an avatar?
